Putin as a follower of Chicherin

edit
Chicherin's ideals, further elaborated by the kadets, were revived by such modern Russian politicians as Anatoly Sobchak and Vladimir Putin.

Very interesting idea and actually makes some sense. But I would like to see it sourced to some known scholar or an analyst. Links or quotes anyone? --Irpen 23:01, August 13, 2005 (UTC)

Please address the consern above. I have my doubts about how serious this claim is. I do not want to force-require sourcing this by deleting the info from the article, but such uncommon ideas need to be attributed if we choose to present them. Thanks! --Irpen 05:33, September 8, 2005 (UTC)

Ghirlandajo, thanks and sorry for hassle :). --Irpen 07:01, September 8, 2005 (UTC)
